Making further plans (again)
Back at Kalulu backpackers in Lusaka and meeting up with old friends and making new friends. Met with David and Marie from Livingstone and spend quite some time with them. For the rest a Swedish father and his daughter with which I also had interesting conversations which make me think about my future.

Indecisive
So here I am, at the only town in the country that allows my adoption of any of the four options laid out in the previous entry. I am in the delightfully named town of Kapiri Mposhi.
